A powerful blizzard raged in the north pole. It was whiter than a sheep's ass out there.

A female fire dragon slept comfortably in a cave. She had her body coiled around a beautiful blue egg to keep it warm, her fire powers kept it from freezing. She had laid the egg five days ago, and it was only a matter of time until it hatched. She was awakened at the sound of foot steps in the cave. She turned her head behind to see a male ice dragon slowly coming in the cave. He was carrying a dead bison on his back. She smiled as she saw the meal. "Logar. You found food!" She would have gotten up to kiss him if it weren't for the fact that she was comforting the egg.

Logar set the bison down in front of his mate. "Anything for you, my dear." He smiled as he tore off a leg and gave it to the female.

The fire dragon took the leg and roasted it. She happily took a bite of the delicious meat. She chewed slowly as her mate continued to watch her with caring eyes. She swallowed and asked, "Why aren't you eating? Aren't you hungry?"

He continued smiling. "Of course I am. But you need it more than I do. I'll wait until you're done, Natalie."

Natalie sighed. One of the many reasons she loved this dragon was his unmatched humbleness. She leaned in closer and they shared a kiss. "I love you."

"And I love you. Always."

After twenty minutes, Natalie finished eating and Logar ate what was left of the bison. Logar got up and laid back down with Natalie. "So, have you thought of any names?" she asked him.

"Names?"

The fire dragon giggled. "You know. For the baby?"

"Oh! Yes, of course." Logarhad been thinking of names ever since he heard his mate was gravid. "Well... I was thinking Magister if it's a boy."

Natalie smiled. "Magister... I like it! And for a girl?"

He put a claw to his forehead. "For a girl... Ummmm... Resalia."

"They're both great names! And fortunately, this child has you for a father."

"I think the greater honor is having you for a mother." They kissed again.

Natalie felt her desires rising. She gave him a lustful smile and got up to stand on all fours. "Make me feel like a woman, Logar."

The ice dragon chuckled. He got up and mounted her. "Your wish is my command..."

Meanwhile...

It had been three days since Ember died. She was cremated and her ashes were scattered on the river.

Spyro cried in his bed room. He held the egg in his arms when he heard a knock at his door. "Who is it?"

"Spyro, it's me, Terrador. I need you to come out to the meeting room."

"I'm not in the mood, Terrador. What's this about?"

"Just come out. This is more important than your grief!" Terrador said.

Spyro got up and held his egg under his right wing. He walked up to the door and opened it. "Fine. I'm up. What is it?"

Terrador grabbed Spyro. "Let's go. We must speak to the others."

"Hey! Let go of me! What gives?!" Terrador dragged Spyro to the meeting room of the temple. Inside were Cyril, Volteer, and Cynder. Terrador made Spyro sit down. "What's going on?"

"Oh. Hi, Spyro," said Cynder. She still loved Spyro secretly. "I heard about Ember. I'm so sorry. Are you okay?"

"Hi, Cynder. I will be. Just give me some time."

"I'm afraid that time is something we don't have right now, Spyro," said Cyril.

"What do you mean?"

"We called you here because there is something of great concern to us," said Volteer.

"An object of incomprehendable power is eminating from the north pole. We fear it is Malefor. We think he may be returning," Terrador said.

"But how is that possible?" Cynder asked. "We watched Malefor die!"

"Even if it isn't Malefor, it's still a threat, Cynder. We need you and Spyro to go investigate the object."

"Ths isn't fair!" Spyro yelled. He still had his egg. "My mate just died and you want me to do your dirty work?!"

Cyril tried talking. "Spyro, you must calm d-"

"Don't fucking tell me to calm down! I can't believe you're just going to send me out like that!"

"Spyro, this is important," said Volteer. "The world might be at risk!"

Spyro calmed down and took a deep breath. "Fine. I'll go. But this is the last time I'm doing any favors for you guys!"

"Understood," said the three guardians.

Meanwhile...

The storm had died down and the couple stepped outside of the cave with their egg. There was snow everywhere they looked, they saw a few hills to their left. They looked up and saw the aurora borealis (northern lights). Natalie watched in amazement. "It's so beautiful..."

"Just like you."

Natalie continued to watch the heavenly sight. "I'm glad we came."

"So am I, my love." Logar watched the lights and saw something odd. He noticed that they were disrupted over the hill. Closer inspection made him realize that a strange object stood on the summit. "Hey. What is that?"

"Huh?" She looked to where he was pointing. "I don't know... Should we go check?"

Logar looked around. "Yes. Let's hurry before the storm comes back."

Meanwhile..

Spyro and Cynder were walking through the Valley of Avalar. Spyro carried the egg in a small sack. He was swearing under his breath.

"Hey, Spyro, you okay?" Cynder asked.

"*sigh* Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just tired of the guardians depending on me! They don't realize that now I have to take care of a child on my own. I have a life." He started crying again. "I miss Ember."

Cynder wrapped one wing around him. "It's okay, Spyro. I'm here for you. Do you remember what I said to you when Ignitus died?"

Spyro nodded. "You said I wasn't alone."

"And you're still not alone, Spyro." Spyro and Cynder looked into each other's eyes. They looked at each other mezmerized.

After a while, Spyro turned hhis head and continued walking. "Let's just... Let's just keep going."

In case anyone hasn't noticed, I hate Terrador.

I might have a lemon between Logar and Natalie in a later chapter, I might not. I haven't decided yet...
